The old chief said, "Petitions, what petitions?"

Xiao Li replied: "It was said that it was for the father and son of Zheng Xianzhou and Zheng Yungang, and that it was for the people to eliminate harm, and asked for lenient treatment." ”

"Oh, there's such a thing. And then we talk about it, let's go and see what's going on?"

After speaking, the old director took the lead out of the office, and Director Chen and Yi Qing also followed closely out of the office door.

As soon as I got out of the office door, I saw dozens of people at the door of the Public Security Bureau, lined up in two rows, and the leader of them was an elderly man, holding a blank piece of paper in his hand, shouting in his mouth asking to see the director. There was a staff member of the Public Security Bureau in front of him who was negotiating something with him.

"What's going on?" the old director muttered as he quickly went downstairs and walked towards the door, followed by Director Chen, Yi Qing, and the director of the political office.

"The chief is here!" shouted someone in the crowd, and people rushed forward to surround the old director.

The old director has seen a lot of this kind of scene, nothing strange or strange, he did not panic at all, but said very calmly: "Fellow villagers, fellow villagers, everyone be quiet." I am the director of the public security bureau in Pengcheng, and you can say anything to me. ”

I saw that the old man at the head raised his hand to signal everyone not to talk nonsense, and then everyone also quieted down.

The old man walked up to the director and said, "You are the director, my name is Wang Weimin, a retired teacher, and now I open a grocery store in the simple room of the City God's Temple Square." "These are my neighbors, old neighbors, and old friends in Pengcheng Street. The purpose of our visit today is to send you a petition to ask you to be lenient with Zheng Xianzhou and his son, and to demand severe crackdown on the street ruffians and hooligans in Pengcheng. ”

The old director took the petition, read it word by word, and then said: "Old comrade, the case of Zheng Xianzhou and his son that you said is still under investigation, and we still need to further verify the situation you reacted to." I totally understand your feelings, but the law is the law, and there is not so much flexibility. Even if it is justified defense according to what you said, it is obviously beyond the normal scope and excessive defense, not to mention whether it is justified defense needs to be further determined and reported to the local public security bureau for approval. ”

"That's it, brother, I'll accept the petition, I already understand the public opinion you want to express, and we will discuss and study it. Actually, to tell you the truth, we were in a meeting just now to study this case. Therefore, you go back first, I promise you that you will deal with Zheng Xianzhou and his son fairly within the scope of the law, please believe in our public security organs, and believe me. In addition, we have studied and decided that after the Spring Festival, we will immediately organize and carry out a special operation against street tyrants, village tyrants and other hooligans and evil forces to severely crack down on ruffians, please wait and see!"

The old director spoke sonorously and vigorously, and some people in the crowd around him applauded for a while.

The old director motioned for everyone to stop, and then said, "How is it, everyone is satisfied with my answer." ”

Wang Weimin grabbed the old director's hand and said: "Okay, comrade director, since we are here, we believe in our party, our government, and our public security bureau. Well, we are relieved to have your words, then we will go back and wait for your good news. ”

The old chief said, "Okay. ”

So, under the leadership of Wang Weimin, everyone left the gate of the Public Security Bureau and dispersed.

Turning around, the old director frowned and went upstairs, then turned back to the correspondent and said, "Let the members of the party committee at home and Yi Qing come to my office." ”

Soon, members of the party committees of the public security bureau who were in the unit and who lived in Pengcheng, including the directors of the two offices and the head of the criminal police brigade, rushed to the bureau chief's office.

Seeing that everyone is coming.

The old director said: "I'm sorry, on the second day of the Lunar New Year, we called everyone over to hold a bureau director's office meeting, because there is an emergency that requires us to hold a meeting to study it immediately, some people already know a rough idea, and some may not know what is going on." Yesterday, there was a murder in our Chenghuang Temple Square in Pengcheng, so let's let our serious crime captain Yi Qing inform you of the situation of the case. ”

So, Yi Qing briefly recounted the entire case to everyone. Because Yi Qing knew what he wanted to study, he focused on the process of Zheng Yun's arrival at the case.

After Yi Qing introduced the case, the old director said: "Everyone saw it just now, the people went to the Public Security Bureau to petition for Zheng Xianzhou's father and son, hoping that we can show leniency, what do you think?"

Director Chen asked, "Yi Qing, what is the situation of this Yao Lihui, and is what the petition says true?"

Yi Qing replied: "Yao Lihui is a ruffian hooligan on the street of Pengcheng, there is no doubt about this, what the petition says is basically true. When I was at the police station, I had several dealings with this Yao Lihui. He doesn't make big mistakes, he keeps making small mistakes, he has his own group of people, he has his own forces, and he can be regarded as a famous figure. ”

Director Chen said: "Judging from the mood of the masses today, this Yao Lihui is indeed very angry, and it seems that he has been making a move for a long time. ”

The director of the political office answered: "I have also heard that this Yao Lihui also asks for accounts for others and intervenes in economic disputes. However, he is the only son of Yao Bingqi, deputy director of the county foreign trade bureau, and just now the county party committee office called to inquire about this case, demanding that we definitely enforce the law impartially and severely punish the murderer. ”

The director of the office said: "This Yao Bingqi is nothing, it's just that he and one of the main leaders in our county are brothers-in-law. Pengcheng is a small place, and there are only a few people, so nepotism is inevitable. Therefore, this Yao Lihui is usually arrogant and domineering, and it is estimated that there should be a reason for this. ”

At this point, everyone fell silent, and there was a brief silence in the conference room.

According to the usual practice, most of the members of the leading group of the Public Security Bureau are natives of Pengcheng, except for the director and political commissar who are from other places, so this kind of complicated relationship is a problem that everyone has to consider.

Seeing that everyone was silent, the old director said, "Comrades, then let me say a few words. First of all, as a law enforcer, the law is our only law and bottom line, and fair law enforcement is also the basic requirement of the state for us, so we should not have any other excessive thoughts in this regard. ”

"Secondly, it can be seen from the great anger of Yao Lihui that our usual lack of law enforcement and crackdown, so that the people dare not speak out, is indeed a dereliction of duty in our work, and we are responsible for this. ”

"Moreover, this case is no longer an ordinary case, but has risen to the level of social stability in Pengcheng and the reputation of the public security organs. How many pairs of eyes are watching our every move behind our backs, and the slightest bias will make ordinary people poke us in the backbone in the back. Therefore, I would like to make a statement here: the case must be handled fairly, openly and fairly, without considering any factors that we think, and we must work on the case, and I believe that the leaders will support us. ”

The old director's words made Yi Qing have a kind of passionate passion, and after seeing that the old director finished speaking, he couldn't help but ask: "Then what should we do with this Zheng Xianzhou?"

Hearing Yi Qing's question, everyone was silent, after all, no one was willing to be the first to express their position, which was understandable.

The old director glanced at everyone and said, "As for this Zheng Xianzhou, he originally planned to do the work, but now it seems that the will of the people is inviolable." In view of the fact that both of them surrendered voluntarily, and that the deceased Yao Lihui was at fault first, and was released on bail pending trial in accordance with the law, and Zheng Yungang was detained and detained, what are the different opinions?"

Now that the top leaders have made their positions clear, everyone is also relieved and agrees.

To be honest, it is not that there are really people present who want to protect this Yao Lihui, or what really does it matter, but a meeting of many people like this, there is no secret for officialdom, and I believe that it will soon be known by some people, so Mingzhe is the choice of the vast majority of people.

This is also a helpless move, after all, everyone does not live in a vacuum.

The old director made the final decision, Yi Qing was ordered to go through the formalities for Zheng Xianzhou, and everyone dispersed and left.

On the way back, Director Chen said to Yi Qing: "Young man, it's right for young people to be aggressive, but you have to pay attention to protecting yourself. I'm not trying to advise you on anything, it's right to do what the leader instructs, but remember that sometimes social relationships are more complex than the case itself. As an excellent criminal policeman, you must not only be good at facing complex cases, but also be good at facing complex situations. ”

Director Chen knew that this Yi Qing had some background in Anzhou City, and although he didn't know what the relationship was, he still had to give the necessary advice. He likes this young man in front of him very much, and hopes that he can grow up as soon as possible.

Yi Qing now understands what is going on, and also understands why Director Chen acted like that in the first place.

With the clear instructions of the leadership, Zheng Xianzhou was soon released on bail and returned home. Yi Qing specially told him the news when he detained Zheng Yungang, and Zheng Yungang was also very grateful to Yi Qing, and bowed deeply to Yi Qing when he left.

After learning that Zheng Xianzhou was released on bail pending trial and returned home, Yao Lihui's mother and sister really came to the public security bureau to make trouble, Yi Qing explained that they didn't listen for a long time, and said that they would go to the county party committee, county government and regional public security office to petition and complain.

Yi Qing had no choice but to put on a straight face and tell them that this was decided by the public security bureau in accordance with the law, and if they were not satisfied, they could complain to the procuratorate and the public security bureau at a higher level, but they should not interfere with the normal office order of the public security organs.

Seeing Yi Qing's tough attitude, Yao Lihui's relatives could only bluff, and then left with hatred.
